What's a Dragon to Do?
12. April 2002
Format:Taschenbuch
Mayland Long and Martha Macnamara are as unlikely a couple as you could hope to meet. Martha is a fiftyish musician, Mayland is-- well, Mayland is unusual, as people who have read the first book in this set, Tea With the Black Dragon, know. When the book opens Mayland, Martha, Martha's young granddaughter Marty, and an ill assorted group of egotistical musicians have been on tour for eight weeks, playing traditional (and not so traditional) Irish folk songs. At this point tempers are frayed while insults (and the occasional fist) are flying.
Then Marty disappears, a member of the band is found hanged by a twisted grass rope off a Pacific pier, and it up to Martha and Mayland to solve the mystery of where Marty is and who the murderer is.
Written in the mid 80's this book is a great favorite of mine, an urban fantasy mystery that mixes Celtic and Eastern lore with some solid detection. The scenes with the band seem very true to life and the fantasy elements are delightfully underplayed. The chapter titles, by the way, as well as the title Twisting the Rope are all titles of trad. Irish tunes.

Sequel to Tea with the Black Dragon
30. August 2000
Format:Taschenbuch
With much of the charm of her first book, Tea with the Black Dragon, MacAvoy revisits Oolong and Martha - now on tour with a "traditional" Irish band. There is a mystery, a little supernatural activity, and the brilliant characterisations that you would expect from this author. To fully appreciate the story you should have read Tea, which is sadly out of print, but it stands alone as a good read.

I Liked It, but Preferred the Precursor Book
18. Juni 2003
Format:Taschenbuch
Tea with a Black Dragon. Much better in my opinion. I read both of these books about 20 years ago, and was not disappointed with my re-read of the Dragon. However I remembered too late I was disappointed in the sequel. For me, personally, it was too much about the music mileau.
One thing I regret is that Ruth doesn't explain the reality behind the mysterious happenings either logically or mystically. I'd like to know why and how, not just who and when in the 'mystic' of it all.
